I'm all CUBS and BULLS

Chicago is known for Chicago Cubs(baseball team.. which i'm getting addicted to) and Chicago bulls..... Jordan is still a GOD in my part of the world...

okiedokie...

I'm doing good here.... not good enuf for a GA though...
Something keeps pushing me...i still haven't found out wat...
but my day goes like this
wake up at 8 00 am
wait for the restroom(my bowels r on a strike i guess!!)
breakfast is : cereals with milk, protein shake or a half boiled egg, and a coffee(not even close to my mom's!!!)
and head to either west campus or east campus... east campus is engg and sciences... west campus is medical, nursing pharmacy n
stuff like that..... where ever i go i do this....
" hi i'm a grad stud... looking for ga(this with a big smile and they usually wish me.. they r artifically courteous..)
i just thought i wud drop in my resume.... hm huh.. is there ne openings here ?(reply :a spontaneous polite no) okie ne way
u may want my resume for ne future openings.... have a nice day..(i usually end up smiling as if i earned a million dollars) and sorry for the trouble..."
or something to this effect..
and we usually meet in some place to have lunch.. my fav is cheese pizza with a choc milk(3.5$.. the cheap and best in the east campus)
or eat in a chinese restaurant.. my good god they serve fried rice for 3 people and they call that "small veg fried rice" which is around 3.25$ and its not that good or not that bad either... and we go as 6 or 8 peeps and we will buy a JUMBO fried rice (small< medium< large< jumbo) which is around 8 $ and it turns to be a long fun lunch and also the cheapest possible...i once saw a fat (1 in 4 r obese) female devouring a large all by herself... and after that she went to the neighbouring shop to have a sub( a burger kinda thing sold in subway) and a drink(large.. close to 750ml)... i was shcoked to see that... peeps here live to eat...
i now no longer stay with those DAL fellows(DAL = kaboor[mocked version of kapoor]= north indians)
i live with tam folks.. when i say tam folks i mean pakka tam guys ranging from coimbatore, erode, chennai etc etc..
and the count is around 20 and we (5 of us) have signed a lease and will be moving in on sunday making the count go
to 25 everything is pretty close.... each house is either meter away laterally or a floor above me... so its immense fun esp in the weekend..
they screened padayappa... samma koothu!!! and we also played cricket...

speakin of cricket... guys take some 30 tennis balls(not exaggerating) and end up returning with mostly 0 or less than 5...
we play on sundays in between the lecture halls and we loose a tennis ball every 3 overs...start around 4 pm and end up around 8 30 pm....
sun sets here at around 9 pm ... and thats damn deceiving .. i while away my time thinking its just 6 and suddenly i realise when my dad calls up and the time is 9 30 or so....

i bowled after a long time and my shoulder went crazy....

and u guys must read my resume... it sounds as though i'm ready for a coding job in AT&T or BELL(bleeding babu bell hahahaha)
will post my resume or just mail you guys...

there was a b'day party for one of my senior... i saw some real time gross videos.... like the ones we download in kazaa and we see a guy getting killed alive or something to that effect...
b'day bums... i thought 'thank god my b'day comes in march'... machees dharma adi na dharma adi... and all are drunk...
the guy then gets ready for a abhishegam session and it goes like
samber 1 vessel full
rasam if any...
pepsi as many as ppl wish..
and some sarakku as well.. volume of it depends upon the cost of the sarakku..
and then he comes out bathing and guys r even more drunk now and now again a bums session and follwed by
cake abhishegam... he then again goes for a bath.. poor guy comes out hoping nothing happens and he gets some goodies...
this senior named JUDE got a Apple ipod shuffle... 200$ or so and other goodies like chocs and stuff

i usually hit my home at around 4pm and then music rings till i sleep.. and i walk in to ne of the seniors house and eat wat ever i want..
chips, juices, desserts, rice with sambar, biriyani wat not... dinner is usually very heavy as all of us eat lunch outside and breakfast is also very light....
and sit with comp for sometime.. get some conversation goin with seniors and get some tips from them....
and i crash at around 12 pm...

and u guys(my friends) and my family visit my dreams..... and at times some hot female who smiled at me when i said "have a nice day".... guess wat then... a guy named umashankar wakes me up saying "dey baadu time evalo theriyuma 8 15.... endhiri!!"
